Excellent tour guide English was good Places as advertised Marble statues was jaw dropping. It's unbelievable that they were hand crafted. I love the skill being passed down to the younger generation
A fantastic tour that took us to the key places in Da Nang. We particularly enjoyed the Lady Buddha and the pagoda. Dat was an exceptional guide, he catered to our group’s needs and provided us with excellent information. Would highly recommend!
Great major Da Nang sites tour accommodating my special needs. Dat had great English skills and was a terrific guide. In addition I left my phone in the car by mistake and the driver promptly returned it to my hotel. They make a great duo.

Ho Tien Dat was our private guide and absolutely the best guide ever. His English is excellent and knowledgeable of Da Nang was superb. Anyone coming to Vietnam, I suggest going only to Da Nang /Hoi An/Ba Na Hills and hire Dat as your guide.

Had a very nice day with Tai my tour guide and Hung the driver. Tai did a great job explaining Buddhism in Vietnam to me and the significance of the sites. Especially enjoyed the details of the gardens at the Lady Buddha. Shopping at the market was a fun experience. Loved the dragon bridge and learning about the recent growth of Danang. Marble Mountain caves were fascinating. The Champa museum was an extra bonus! Highly recommend this tour to see the best of the city!
Hi Diane, Thank you so much for your valuable review !! We really appriciate it !!! Looking forward to welcoming you back in the near future !!!!!
You have a driver as well as a guide who speaks perfect English and has good knowledge of the city. The guide has the driver on tap by the phone. This allows you to take your own time. My wife has issues with her legs and,therefore, takes time getting up and down stairs which was a requirement at the temples. The car was comfortable and air-conditioned. We are in our late 60's and found that the 5 hour trip was about right for us.
Thank you so much for your valuable review !! We really appriciate it !!! Looking forward to welcoming you back in the near future !!!!!
